Keep Your Eye on the Ball; the Impact of an Anticipatory Fixation During Successful and Unsuccessful Soccer Penalty Kicks

The success of a sporting task requiring an object to be kicked or hit toward a target (e.g., kicking a ball into a goal) is impacted by the length of the Quiet Eye (QE).Limitations in the ocular motor system mean that after impact, these fast moving objects are not tracked using smooth pursuit eye movements.Rather, anticipatory fixations are used
